Description

The Nikon N60 was the bridge between the professional SLRs of the 90s and the digital revolution. This specific unit features the "Champagne" or silver finish that was incredibly popular at the turn of the millennium. It is a fully featured autofocus camera with a built-in pop-up flash, multiple scene modes (Sports, Portrait, Landscape, etc.), and a robust matrix metering system. While it was considered an entry-level camera in its day, it is a fantastic "gateway" camera for modern photographers wanting to try 35mm film because it feels and operates very similarly to a modern DSLR.
